Evidently one of the American magazines decided to follow up of this and yes, its just a dream. Not true at all.
One of the pratfalls of believing everything your see/find on the internet.

I was cleaning out our garden shed in preparation for winter and came across an old, but still good, pair of rubber boots! (About the closest I'll come to a barn find I guess.)

Do you have any documentation to prove your claim that they are old? Worthless without that................

Does this count???  Last yr. I was helping my buddy work on his 57 chevy sedan delivery, the left vent was jambed & we pulled an RCMP shirt out of the vent tube. It was OLD, it was a "FIND" & documented by the crest on shoulder???

From what I'm reading its a true collection but not one found accidentally. Its one that was gathered slowly over time. For me it seems kinda a waist nice cars collected then never taken care of. Kinda a shame if you ask me.
